Thought Provoking Tuesday: Patience is Truly A Virtue

At times we can become so wrapped up in our business, and climbing the ladder of success that it’s hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel.

“Patience is a bitter plant but it has sweet fruit.”

This simple German proverb speaks volumes. It is a small reminder that while we may want instant results and gratification, patience helps us sustain optimism and realize that when it comes to growth, the sky’s the limit.

Patience is your friend…. it discourages impulsive decisions and keeps you motivated.

During the “waiting process” we tend to learn and experience far more than what the final result can yield. Next time you find yourself growing impatient, confidently remind yourself that by being patient you are actually focusing on your business’s long term stability. Long-term sustainability is ALWAYS better than short-term gains.

Think about a time when patience paid off for you. Was it worth the effort? What did you learn during the “waiting process?” Now, be an inspiration, take the opportunity and share your experience in the comments below.
